Administrators NorthGeorgiaWX Posted December 26, 2023 Administrators Share Posted December 26, 2023 SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0154 PM CST Tue Dec 26 2023 Valid 281200Z - 031200Z The potential for critical fire-weather conditions is low through the extended forecast period. On D4/Friday, a persistent midlevel low will gradually devolve into a positive-tilt trough over the eastern CONUS, while a related southwesterly jet streak overspreads the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic. A modest pressure gradient beneath the strong flow aloft will favor breezy/gusty surface winds across much of the Southeast into the southern Mid-Atlantic states, where marginal RH reductions are possible. However, generally cool surface temperatures and recent/ongoing rainfall should limit most fire-weather concerns here. Thereafter, an unconsolidated/split-flow pattern is expected across the CONUS, which will generally limit the development/overlap of warm/dry/windy conditions. One exception may be on D6/Sunday across the southern High Plains, where a southern-stream jet max may promote dry/breezy downslope flow. With that said, critical conditions are unlikely owing to marginal fuels. ..Weinman.. 12/26/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
